"Choice" seems to be the word of the day. Obsidian has launched a new blog for Alpha Protocol at IGN, with the first entry introducing the game:

One of our goals with Alpha Protocol was to highlight player choice, and, perhaps more importantly, ensure that the choices you make are meaningful and have an impact on the world. As an RPG, we of course allow the player to choose between a number of different skills for Mike Thorton, so if you want to go balls-to-the-wall with assault rifles and increased health, you can specialize in the associated skills, or if you want to play a quiet, leave-nothing-behind-but-footprints character, you can max out your stealth and your skill in silenced pistols. Or if you prefer to hack through your troubles, you can specialize in technical skills and gadgets. Or you can try to mix and match skills that you find intriguing and try the jack-of-all-trades approach!
